Rev. Noble and Miss Jean Gard-
ner, Education Resource person,
endeavoured to enlighten the
minds of those assembled regard-
ing the work of the Board of
Congregational Life. It meets five
times a year and. general procedur-
• es are to split up into committees to
deal with matters brought before
them, then come together to
discuss their findings. Major areas
of Congregational Life consist of
three segments -- worship, out-
reach and nurture. Clinics dealing
with worship and outreach have .
been held in London, Stratford,
Chatham and Niagara Falls, 'with
another being Planned on nurture.
Group participation in a game on
interdependence of church commit-
tees, followed' by animated discus-
sion led to' the conclusion that '
W.M.S. work has something to tio
in all the areas of worship, outreach
and nurture. Thus each member is
an exerting influence and should
make themselves and their work
known in every area. Congrega-
tional life is ill and needs a
remedial clinic, which is rather ,
good, for the church actually is .'
sinners coming 'together to find
they have the love of God to
redeem them.
Offering was sollected by Mrs.
R. McKague, Mrs. R. Arbuckle,
Mrs. R. Nixon and Mrs. C. Wood,
after which Mrs. J. Mair, Brussels,
